Example Code for Arduino-Single Measurement Mode

Read ambient temperature (C/F) and relative humidity (%RH) in single-read mode.
Experimental phenomenon: the chip defaults in this mode, we need to send instructions to enable the chip collect data, which means the repeatability of the read needs to be set (the difference between the data measured by the chip under the same measurement conditions) then read the temperature and humidity data and print the data in the serial port.
Single measure mode: read data as needed, power consumption is relatively low, the chip idle state only costs 0.5mA.

Hardware Preparation

• DFRduino UNO R3 (or similar) x 1
• Gravity: SHT31-F Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor x1
• Connectors

Software Preparation

• Arduino IDE
• Download and install the SHT3x Library and Example Programs. (About how to install the library?)

Wiring Diagram

Other Preparation Work

• Confirm the hardware IIC address matches the program's default address (0x45).
• Initialize the chip and check for successful communication.
• Optional: Turn on the heater for wet environments (commented out in the code).

Additional Information

• The code includes optional heater activation for wet environments (commented out).
• Repeatability settings (High/Medium/Low) are available for single measurement mode (commented out in the loop).
